BOOTPROTO=bootp is triggering it.I'm confused. I just rebooted another machine with 'BOOTPROTO=bootp' in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-eth, it did not rewrite /etc/resolv.conf.

I haven't followed the entire discussion, but do you have correct settings in /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 (or whatever the NIC is) and the two relevant files in /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ ??
hth, ken
To add to Ken's answer... The setting is PEERDNS in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth? file. If PEERDNS is set to "yes" then the resolv.conf file will be rewritten on every reboot. If set to "no" then the resolv.conf should not change.
BTW, I have not read the OP's original post and basing my answer just on the subject line.
